Panic buying only contributes more problems than solutions.

In my area, we've been sold out of face masks, hand sanitizer, disinfectant spray, and disinfectant wipes for several weeks now. And from what I've been hearing, people are now panicking and buying up all the toilet paper.
Toilet paper? Nowhere in all the recommendations made by health officials do they say that toilet paper is effective in fighting the virus. The things people do when they panic never ceases to amaze me.

@resukill22 They've said that toilet paper is NOT effective for using as a face mask to fight the virus.

I guess that would be right to distribute the good to everyone and not only to a certain people who has the money. That is being greedy already. When buying we should still think of others who can afford one. Everyone should practice restraint and do not practice the habit of hoarding since it affects the mindset of the general public and teh normal supply chain is broken because of this unnecessary panic.

@resukill22 Yes when you hoard something you are depriving others to buy the same item. It is like being too greedy or selfish already. One should be considerate that when you buy, you buy only the quantity that you need to buy. That is why I do not recommend panic buying because it is not only one person needs that everybody deserves to have that item that is being hoarded.

That's good they're panic buying. But others are panic for they have nothing to buy.

@resukill22 Actually the people won't resort to panic buying when the government acted right away since the first suspected case was noted.
